Why You Want Her
“Empowered, confident and embodied women
live wildly purposeful lives and experience more love.“
I believe in the power of the human connection. There is no shame in being who you are. This requires a multicultural understanding, integrated approach and compassionate lens on life that understands that sexuality is a fundamental aspect of the human condition.
I approach women & couples with empathy, vulnerability and an open mind. My body centered somatic resources and calm nervous system puts others at ease. This allows a professional, ethical, yet uniquely intimate connection to form between us. As trust builds, collaboration occurs towards helping others heal their inner wounds and transition to a place of confidence & unconditional self-acceptance. This is when full erotic expression is experienced, core desires are discovered and embodied pleasure can be reached in life. Sexual wellness is heath care too.
About The Founder
“Hi! I am Dovie Gena, a Board Certified Sexologist and powerhouse in the world of women’s sex-positive transformation.
I take sex & relationship coaching to the next level with body based modalities including somatic touch and EMDR to guide women & couples through healing trauma and reclaiming their right to pleasure.
I believe women live with greater purpose when they unlock healing through the power of orgasmic experiences and divine embodiment.
Certified by the Somatica Institute, accredited by the American Board of Sexology, & trained in somatic EMDR through the Embody Lab, I blend profound psychological expertise with a genuine passion for fostering authentic connections. The result is a co-regulated experience that celebrates unapologetic confidence and empowered sensuality.
As the founder of Born to Be Wild Lifestyle, I blend 5+ years of intimate event expertise to help top brands & organizations host ethical, shame free and consensual events, workshops and retreats in their communities. My early education was built on hospitality and I still hold a position as a LGBTQ Certified Wedding Planner today.
While I am a somatic practitioner with my coaching clients, I remain actively involved in business development in the sex positive industry offering marketing, sales consulting & freelance content writing to help build brand loyalty and revenue growth for well recognized national & international companies that also believe that: sexual wellness is an integral and important part of whole person centered health care.
Guiding people on how to better understand themselves, their sexuality, have mind blowing sex and authentic relationships, both inspired and motivated me, to launch the company I always dreamed of. Ultimately, I designed a unique career by merging heart centered care & compassion working with women, to overcome shame and trauma. I operate at the intersection of Spirit, Soma, Science & Sexuality ~ my secret recipe! By combining how the body holds wisdom with a deep understanding of clinical mental health care practices, I inspire others to learn and grow in a safe and non-judgmental experience.”
